Django

|
|
Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development
|
|
and clean, pragmatic design. Thanks for checking it out.
|
|
|
|
All documentation is in the "``docs``" directory and online at
|
|
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/. If you're just getting started,
|
|
here's how we recommend you read the docs:
|
|
|
|
* First, read ``docs/intro/install.txt`` for instructions on installing Django.
|
|
|
|
* Next, work through the tutorials in order (``docs/intro/tutorial01.txt``,
|
|
``docs/intro/tutorial02.txt``, etc.).
|
|
|
|
* If you want to set up an actual deployment server, read
|
|
``docs/howto/deployment/index.txt`` for instructions.
|
|
|
|
* You'll probably want to read through the topical guides (in ``docs/topics``)
|
|
next; from there you can jump to the HOWTOs (in ``docs/howto``) for specific
|
|
problems, and check out the reference (``docs/ref``) for gory details.
|
|
|
|
* See ``docs/README`` for instructions on building an HTML version of the docs.
|
|
|
|
Docs are updated rigorously. If you find any problems in the docs, or think
|
|
they should be clarified in any way, please take 30 seconds to fill out a
|
|
ticket here: https://code.djangoproject.com/newticket
|
|
|
|
To get more help:
|
|
|
|
* Join the ``#django`` channel on ``irc.libera.chat``. Lots of helpful people
|
|
hang out there. See https://web.libera.chat if you're new to IRC.
|
|
|
|
* Join the django-users mailing list, or read the archives, at
|
|
https://groups.google.com/group/django-users.
|
|
|
|
To contribute to Django:
|
|
|
|
* Check out https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/ for
|
|
information about getting involved.
|
|
|
|
To run Django's test suite:
|
|
|
|
* Follow the instructions in the "Unit tests" section of
|
|
``docs/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests.txt``, published online at
|
|
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/contributing/writing-code/unit-tests/#running-the-unit-tests
